DESCRIPTION:Legal Lynching in America:\nOscar Grant, Mass Incarceration, and the Death 
 Penalty\n\nFeaturing Liliana Segura and Jack Bryson\n\nAfter kicking all 
 African-Americans off of the jury and a half-hearted effort by the 
 prosecution, officer Johannes Mehserle looks poised to get off lightly for 
 the murder of Oscar Grant. Meanwhile, more than two million people are in 
 prison, the United States continues to use the racist death penalty and 
 police brutality is out of control. Attend this public meeting to discuss 
 the out-of-control criminal injustice system and what we can do to stop it. 
 There will also be updates for actions to be taken in case the jury fails 
 to convict Mehserle. Come and add your voice!\n\nSpeakers:\n\nLiliana 
 Segura is an AlterNet staff writer and editor of Rights & Liberties and 
 World Special Coverage. She also writes for CounterPunch and the New 
 Abolitionist, a publication of the Campaign to End the Death 
 Penalty.\nhttp://www.alternet.org/authors/8550/\n\nJack Bryson: His sons 
 were on the BART platform with Oscar Grant the night he was murdered by 
 officer Johannes Mehserle. Jack is also a leading activist in the campaign 
 to win justice for Oscar and charge Mehserle with murder.\n\nThis event is 
 a special opening session for the West Coast Socialism Conference. \n\n$10 
 admission at the door. Seating is limited so pre-register at
